Québec, September 22, 2005 - Fortune 1000 Group Inc. ("Fortune 1000 Group") (TSX Venture Exchange: "FRT") announces the release of a new program designed to allow retail stores to manage their stocks in a network environment.

The software, called SDS Inventory, SDS representing "Secured Data Service", allows the administrators of a chain of retail stores to manage their stocks in real time, securely. Using this new technological solution, information required to effectively run business operations can be accessed, shared, entered and distributed throughout the network.

Developed by Fortune 1000 Group, the product stands out from the competition for its affordable annual price of only $500 per branch. Furthermore, SDS Stocks is an ASP application implemented as an Internet service. This unique feature involves neither server nor additional safety systems, contrary to products sold by other software designers.

François Taschereau, CEO of Fortune 1000 Group, stated that this new software shows Fortune 1000 Group’s commitment to develop its market by positioning itself as the partner of choice of retail stores willing to optimize their operations.
